PRESS: "Meltdown – Ignited is a life-size 16" vinyl bust that explores what it feels like inside when everything around you is coming apart. As scoops of ice cream glow disconcertingly inside noop, swirls of berry fruit syrups and whipped cream assure you that everything is normal and this ice cream is safe to eat. A spoon is already there, encouraging you to ignore your better judgement and take a big helping. Yes, the rainbow sprinkles seem to cheer. Ice cream has always glowed in the dark. noop awaits your decision. In the end, nobody wins."
PRESS (CONTINUED): "Each serving of Meltdown – Ignited comes with a split-open noop packed with scoops of mouthwatering glow-in-the-dark ice cream, vibrant fruit syrups, trails of cloud-white whipped cream, a dash of rainbow sprinkles, one juicy cherry, and a pink “c-o-a-r-s-e” spoon firmly secured into the delectable cranial dessert. The sculptures come in our usual premium production quality and are securely embedded in black sponge inside a color-printed gift box.

"noop feels helpless. All around him, the world is falling apart. Sea levels rise, droughts persist, and the future has never been bleaker. All the euphoria that was once locked within him slowly begins oozing out his lips and down his chin, and once it melts away entirely, rebuilding this confectionary cosmos will be impossible. This is the beginning of the end.
You won’t always be who you are. Savor yourself while you can. Satisfy your craving.
Take a bite at your own risk: This batch is radioactive."
